Our desire is to offer to birthworkers a deeper understanding of the physiology and hormonal processes of normal reproduction as well as a deep trust in their own unique individualized intuition in their own practice. We have come to realize that most current training in midwifery is deeply enmeshed in the obstetrical model that pregnancy and birth are pathology with the constant fear of ‘what can go wrong’. It is our hope to bring the wisdom of our foremothers back to the foundation of our birthing culture. We believe the foundational concepts used for this training can open a deeper understanding that will enable you to develop confidence in your intuition and embodied knowledge, no matter where this journey takes you.
